Side Effects
Great Product. Relly helped knock out cough and congestion. It's designed to interfere with the cough response center of your brain. Do not over-use as it is supposed to be narcotic and addictive, although I have never experienced any problems here. Definitely do not use alcohol in conjuntion. I have used this product on and off for a few years now as I have lung problems and it has been the Magic Elixer when needed.
